Womb Bomb Rah Voila

waking at odd hours

is it light
twilight of night
falling asleep on a whims
the tinsel blinks the midnight
is it noon my eyes won't tell
as aroused from slumber
the spirit chants the glory

no a voice hum must be morning
the smell of coffee I do not want to focus
my mind shush the aroma to travel further
i am a child in the body of an old lady feeding the cats 
the dog in need of a pee I age fast to tender the necessity
and a flag I will not wave as I run out of fabric trying to keep you warm in wars
